Crowdsourced COVID map

About

A community-driven COVID-19 map

The risk of contamination and new disease outbreaks can be significantly lowered by mapping the risk profile of each individual. Project Crowdsourced COVID Map gathers personal health data provided by its app users to map contamination risk by location. Through anonymized crowdsourced data of users (symptoms, potential exposure, travel and movement history), the app will allow for transparency and increased data-driven decision making and public policies. . . . In times when the more we know the more equipped we are, Crowdsourced COVID Map, pools and generates data to identify high risk areas and people. Through anonymized crowdsourced data of users symptoms, potential exposure, travel and movement history and other information, the app will allow for transparency and increased data-driven information.
